Today’s tale of pentest covers: Farming for credentials (don’t forget to understand trusted zones to make this happen properly!) Snaffling for juice file shares Stealing Kerberos tickets with Rubeus

Hello friends, we’re still deep in the podcast trenches this quarter and wanted to share some nuggets of cool stuff we’ve been learning along the way: Snaffler – pairs nicely with PowerHuntShares to find juicy tidbits within file/folder shares Group3r – helps you find interesting and potentially abusable Group Policy Object configurations Farmer – totally awesome toolkit for dropping tricky files on shares that will do things like fire up the Webclient service for any system browsing the share (doesn’t require admin rights!) or coaxing a system into authenticating with you via HTTP or SMB

Hey friends, sorry for the late episode but I've been deep in the trenches of pentest adventures.  I'll do a more formal tale of pentest pwnage when I come up for air, but for now I wanted to share some tips I've picked up from recent engagements: GraphRunner - awesome PowerShell toolkit for interacting with Microsoft Graph API.  From a pentesting perspective, it may help you bridge the "gap" between LAN-side AD and Azure and find some goodies - like files with and XSLX extension containing the word password. PowerUpSQL -I typically use this to make SQL servers cough me up a hash via SMB using stored procedures, but I learned this week that I'll deeeefffffinitely use the Invoke-SQLAudit -Verbose functionality going forward.

Hey friends, today we cover a funstrating (that's fun + frustrating) issue we had with our DIY pentest dropboxes. TLDL:   The preseed file got jacked because I had a bad Kali metapackage in it. While I was tinkering around with preseed files, I decided it would be more efficient to have the Kali ISO call that preseed file directly over HTTP (rather than make a new ISO every time I made a preseed change).  To accomplish that: Mount the Kali ISO Explore to isolinux > txt.cfg Modify the txt.cfg to include a custom boot option that calls your preseed over HTTP.  For example: label install menu label ^Install Yermaum kernel /install.amd/vmlinuz append net.ifnames=0 preseed/url=https://somewebsite/kali.preseed locale=en_US keymap=us hostname=kali777 domain=7min.sec simple-cdd/profiles=kali desktop=xfce vga=788 initrd=/install.amd/initrd.gz --- quiet

Hey friends, today is a first impressions episode about Sysreptor, which according to their GitHub page, is a fully customisable, offensive security reporting solution designed for pentesters, red teamers and other security-related people alike.  It is easy to stand up with Docker, has built-in MFA and a great hybrid WYSIWYG/code editor.  The only scary part?  There is no export to Word (insert suspenseful music here!) - your reports just go right to PDF, friends!  The killer feature for us, though, is the ability to create reports from the command line and send files, notes and findings to Sysreptor automagically!

Hey friends, today our pal Hackernovice joins us for a tool (actually two tools!) release party: EvilFortiAuthenticator - it's like a regular FortiAuthenticator, but evil.  This tool allows you to capture the FortiAuthenticator API and subsequently steal the entire device's config, subsequently allowing you to restore the config to a second server and potentially steal cleartext Active Directory creds and SMTP accounts!  We talk about BulletsPassView - a tool that originially allowed us to simply unmask the "hidden" API key in the FortiAuthenticator client (this did NOT work in the latest version of FAC). Once you get the API key, check out Fortinet's documentation to do fun things like dump the whole config to a file on disk! After you steal the config and restore it to a fresh FortiAuthenticator, use maintenance mode to reset the admin password. Once you can adjust the restored config to your liking, try using MITMsmtp to capture email server creds in the clear! TCMLobbyBBQ - this tool has nothing to do with security, but helps PC players of the Texas Chain Saw Massacre get into lobbies more efficiently.

Today we talk about some business-y things like: A pre first impressions opinion on Sysreptor Why I'm not worried about AI replacing manual pentesting (yet) My struggle with going "full CEO" vs. staying in the weeds and working on hands-on security projects

Today our pals Bjorn Kimminich from OWASP and Paul from Project7 and TheUnstoppables.ai join us as we kick off a series all about hacking the OWASP Juice Shop, which is "probably the most modern and sophisticated insecure web application!" We got a few wins on the Juice Shop score board today: Found the score board Bullied the chatbot Fired a DOM XSS Located a confidential document Gave the Juice Shop a devastating zero stars review Fired a DOM XSS which played the OWASP Juice Shop Jingle
